Do the grounding conductors and bonding conductors ever connect to a common point?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The grounding electrode conductor is brought into the main disconnect section of the distribution panel and a connection is made to the neutral block. The terminations in the panel at this point are two incoming "hots" to the main breaker and a neutral wire to the neutral terminal block. In the neutral termination block there is a ground screw that screws through to the distribution panels metal enclosure, there by making the metal enclosure the same potential as the ground plate or rods and the neutral wire that comes in from the street. The grounded circuit conductors of the wiring system are terminated on a separate ground buss that is located in the circuit breaker section of the panel. This buss is bolted directly to the rear of the distribution panel's metal enclosure in the circuit breaker section of the distribution panel. This ground buss is at the same potential as the ground electrode conductor above because of the grounding screw that connects the neutral block to the metal enclosure. Code requires when wiring sub panels within the same building that the neutral block screw be taken out of the circuit and a separate ground wire be run directly from the main distribution panel. This is to prevent any short circuit currents from the sub panel traveling back on the sub panel feeder's neutral wire.In house wiring you have earth ground connect to the ground bus in the main electric panel. Your neutral bus is "bonded" to the Ground bus only at the main panel. When you run branch panels you do not connect neutral to ground in these branch panels, only the main panel. There is typically a screw in an electric panel where the bonding occurs.


What is logic for ground in digital electronics?

In some types of electronic design you may have Digital circuits also called Logic Circuits and Analog circuits. Each circuit may have separate power and ground lines. So you may see the notation on a schematic for Logic Ground or Analog ground.

Do you have to Connect both fixture and house ground wires?

If you're asking whether you have to connect the fixture ground to the house ground, you do. The idea is to connect any exposed portion of a metal fixture to ground, keeping anything you would be able to touch from having a hazardous potential on it. The way to do this is to connect the fixture ground (which is connected to the metal chassis) to the building ground (which comes from your electrical panel).

What does a video amplifier do?

A video amplifier is a device that accepts a single input signal and provides this same signal to multiple isolated outputs. These devices are important because they allow signals to be distributed to multiple destinations without ground loops and signal degradation.


Can you connect the ground and neutral coming out of a cooktop to the ground of a nm8 2 wire?

Yes, you may connect the ground and neutral together as long as this is a replacement in an exsisting dwelling,for new construction you must have a four wire circuit with separate neutral and grounding conductor.It was never the intention of the code to make home owners replace exsisting three wire circuits with four wire when replacing equipment. .
